Dirt trial - everyone going bonkers. We got the 2nd try somehow. Wall bouncing, hitting each other, it was absurd. Before you start wall bouncing see how people are doing. It’s really rude you don’t know where or who you will run into.

Surprised to see the Performante back already. Only thing what sucks is the auction house they’re still cheap max buyout, maybe this will change things.

Tuned 1986 Hoonigan Ford RS200 Evolution for the Trial and tuned 2011 Audi RS 3 Sportback for the PGG. PGG as usual. Everyone on the other team quit after their first loss.

I guess its gonna be S2 dirt if people are using the Hoonigan RS

The trial was S1 Rally Monsters. Good luck. It isn’t hard but they made it hard. They also whipped the AI into a frenzy,

Ooou. The Performante as a Forzathon shop item? Nice.

Trial was a bit of a mess, divatars crashing into everything/everybody and only managed 1st and 2x 2nd (couldn’t catch crazy fast drivatar in Hoonigan Escort).
All in all a win on first try, with Hoonigan RS200, tune 545 011 302
A class vans&utils, I again used my trusty El Camino, with just a bit different setup then for dirt - 155 783 460
As A class modern sports car, I used Eagle Speedster, tune 173 077 797
A class retro super car, was recycle of a trial a few weeks ago - Lambo Jarama with DJS tune.
Maybe it should have dirt tune, but even tuned for street, it did the trick.

Stunts as every week done with Agera RS and Lego Senna.

Now back to waiting for Napier-Railton … :slight_smile:

Should it really be 25 Ultimate Speed skills? That’s over 200mph which seems a bit ridiculous for a hot hatch.

It’s easy, you can do most of them on the Goliath. I prefer to play the Goliath to get some influence at the same time.

Need to max out upgrades and tune for speed… … I did it in the Clio Williams…

Obviously, he’s pointing out the fact that having us make retro hot hatches go over 200 mph is kind of moronic.

yeah the 200 mph is stupid

For anyone struggling to reach 200mph…

The Honda Civic '84 (Civic CRX Mugen) has been given the option to upgrade to a 6.0L V8. That puts out 1012hp when fully upgraded.
In a hot hatch.
An AWD drivetrain swap is recommended.
Good luck.
Driving it is like holding a tigers tail.

Not in the 1984 Civic CRX Mugen! That thing is an absolute beast and cheap as chips in the AH on occasion. Max it out to S2 and it’ll hit 240mph and handles great as a bonus!

+1 that’s what I used, got the speed skills in no time.

And as for the Speedtail, not good, I’ll get rid as soon as it’s able to be sold on the auction house.

I might 100% this season honestly. Some good cars available, and I especially like the focus on McLaren.

Acura RSX, max tuned, 350kph max speed.
Challenge done in 2 passes on freeway.

Easiest speed zone to 3 star - Forest green (even grip tuned C class can do it)

That Speedtail is horrendous on S2 998…handling like an S900 car and the brakes are abysmal.
Can’t reach 998 as RWD and the AWD conversion costs a lot. Feels like an AWD rocket ship. Why does this car need engine upgrades? Give it at least one bonus tire tier and adjustable rear-aero.
From a performance perspective another waste just like most of the recent modern Super/Hypercar additions.

Suddenly this week NO ONE has a 900 rally monster for some reason and no one is capable of anything that resembles “good” driving. 3 teams of idiots so far, going to have to try again tonight.
